[QUOTE="greycastle, post: 1424325, member: 11130"] From reading much too much Geroge R.R. Martin (the "Song of Ice and Fire" series) i was wondering how in a world of practically non-pracitced (not non-existant) magic would be dealt with? Ignoreing conversions or classes, and abilities. In the book an old (religious) Lord Beric Dondarion (the one eyed gimp) seemingly from faith cuts his hand and lets his blood run over the blame, setting the blade alight (through somesort of crazy magic). How would you do this with rules if no classes have spells, other than thsoe DM migtht deem to agree to (we're still in the staged of developing this campaign). E.g. a priest of Roh'lar (or what not, books not infront of me) being a priest of the god of Light, fire and shadow, would you give them access to certain spells of that specific type? (other things are campaign specific, so i won't go into that unless someone else brings it up). Question is how would you give a character simply devoted to a faith whos a fighter abilities like that? (We've been fooling around with the idea that a fighter who displays great courage, valor, honour and general Goodness would gain certain abilities of a paladin whilst retaining fighter feats (e.g. Diving Grace, Aura of Courage), and something like a Warrior Priest of R'hllor (found the name :p) to be a sort of Paladin Prestige class (almost more akin to a zealot, like Thoros, the red priest). Basically i'm a bit longwinded and confused, but if anyone has any ideas (or if this is in the wrong section of the forum) please give your opinon. And if anyone else has read the books and has any ideas for classes and such (without really being Conversions as such) please post. Thanks ahead of time :] [/QUOTE]
